In connection with the launch of Sony's exclusive small version of the PSP Go console, Indigofera Prima Jeans, Sony Playstation & FEED records join forces with us at C to present a limited deal offering both quality denim and entertainment.

For the holidays, Indigofera has produced a limited edition denim pouch for the PSP Go. The pouch is designed by Indigofera’s head designer Johan Söderlund & made from the finest 16 oz selvage denim, sourced from the legendary japanese textile mill Nihon Menpu.

In December, customers here at C will have the opportunity to buy the new PSP Go along with the denim pouch & a pair of Indigofera's Clint selvage jeans.The gaming console in this package comes with a free game, the Denim Discotech mixtape by DJ lill;D from FEED Records plus a number of secret surprises. The Indigofera + PSP Go package is available in a limited edition of 20 pieces, and will be sold at here at the C store starting on the 4th of December. The whole package will retail at the modest price of €349: - (Sek 3499:-).

Here's what Johan Söderlund and Mats Andersson of Indigofera has to say about the somewhat surprising collaboration:We are drawn to the idea that what consider the latest in quality and technology today, will relatively soon be considered vintage. Combining a high technology game like PSP Go with an old classic like denim means playing with the future and the past at the same time. Is it a symptom of our time? Yes, perhaps, or maybe it’s just something we like.

While we're still waiting for this amazing package to hit the shelves, check out what we currently stock from Indigofera Prima Jeans @ caliroots.com

As we mentioned yesterday we are very excited to tell you that japanese denim company Works Corp. just delivered the first part of our order!Works Corp. is the company behind the highly coveted Iron Heart & Triple Works brands. While Iron Heart focuses solely on extra heavy weight 21 oz denim, Triple Works is the label for the regular weight 14 oz denims.

The batch that we unpacked yesterday contained the amazing Triple Works TWHR01.

The incredibly beautiful denim used for these jeans is made in Okoyama from hand picked extra long fibre single cropped Zimbabwe cotton, woven on vintage japanese 29" RIKI-SHOKKI looms & dyed with pure indigo. Single cropped Zimbabwe cotton is usually used for making garments of a higher class, such as fine shirts & dresses. This makes for a denim that has a quite smooth surface & a very nice sheen to it.We are pretty confident that you won't come across anything like it.

The finished product definetely lives up to the denim specifications with a great fit & an abundance of great details such as hidden rivets, goat skin patch, selvedge button fly & belt loops stitched into the waistband for extra durability.

First up is the heavy weight flannel called Rosen Check. This is a great & versatile shirt, we think it works just as well being worn as an overshirt. €110:- (Sek 1099:-)

This one is called Indigo & Green Check. This one is a bit stiffer with an almost denim feel to it. The amazing blue color is achieved through a genuine indigo dye & just like a pair of jeans, it will fade and become even more beautiful over time. €110:- (Sek 1099:-)

This is the Teatergrillen Check, named after the classic Stockholm restaurant. Fantastic square pattern in a really nice & soft fabric. €110:- (Sek 1099:-)
